Ok, so now to my current self. So much has happened. I was currently diagnosed with Hashimoto's, yet another autoimmune disease. My body is ALWAYS on edge. I don't just have anxiety, my immune system does too. So, now my own body is also attacking my thyroid. Yay... getting older and finding out all these health things is not fun. But, I've been trying to change my eating habits and manage my stress better as to not make my inflammation in my body worse. I've always just been super sensitive. I've got allergies, Celiac, and now this. I'll weather it too. I've been fairly healthy my whole life, minus my anxiety and neurospiciness. In my late 20s, that was when the Celiac hit, and now this. So, if these are my cards to play with, I am all in.
Speaking of the game of life, my partner and I are now married and are living together in a house we own. We are slowly planning for another kid, and it is more the reason for me to make sure my health is on the right path. I can't control my genetics or any environmental factors to a degree, but I can control some stuff. My son is flourishing. He's a whiz at science and math and is warming up to reading. I'm gardening now that I've got some space and am setting roots, literal and figurative. So, I'll be alright. I am getting answers to things along the way.
